    I am looking for ideas to do a quilt for a seven year old girl, who likes rainbows. Not sure what to do. Appreciate any suggestions.
    Thanks Shazz

    This is a WIP that I am making for my daughter. I got this one as a kit off ebay and I want to make it a bit longer but not much wider, but you could probably do something similar using a french braid pattern. It is done in batik fabrics which I love.

    When my daughter was young she had a lovely quilt with unicorns on it jumping over rainbows, don't have a pattern for it, I just thought the two went together really well!
    She is all grown up now but her signature/seal is a unicorn over a rainbow and her favourite quote is,

    "Unicorns live in constant fear of becoming a figment of their own imagination"
